Bespoke Product Design

Take advantage of QMP’s Bespoke Product Design Service.
Although QMP offers a huge range of products you may have specific needs for a custom product to fit your work environment. These projects have an intricate design process – where ideas transform into workable solutions fitting precise specifications.
Our experienced sales team and hardworking production team can provide our customers with a full design service. This includes a site visit for our team to plan and measure the desired space for the installation. Additionally, our specialised production team will provide our customers with CAD drawings. Alongside rendered imaging, customers are able to see what their product will look like in situ.
Here is an example of a customized Pack Tek Workbench that was created for a valued distributor. We worked with the original sketch idea and used Solidworks design software to create a detailed model, technical drawings and final render for the customized product.
DESIGN SKETCHES
The first step is to obtain design ideas from our customers or draw initial sketches of the product. Our designers will then evaluate the requirements and develop concepts in harmony with our manufacturing standards.
MODEL DESIGN
Using Solidworks design software our team create 3D models of the product following the customer requirements and concept drawings. The project really starts to come to life at this stage of the process.
TECHNICAL DRAWINGS
Next, our in-house design team will create detailed technical drawings of the project. This will include precise measurements and specifications to make sure that the finished product will match the customer’s requirements exactly.
FINAL RENDER
Finally, a high-resolution render of the product is created. This is how the final product will look when manufactured. Once this is approved by the customer, the product will be manufactured by our expert team.
QMP’s Bespoke Service
Our technical team will be more than happy to discuss how our standard designs might be adapted to suit the specific requirements of a particular application. This may include how to accommodate existing features or equipment safely or changing dimensions, colours and material specifications from those we use as standard.
What does our service include?
- Examining the original sketch or idea.
- Developing the concept in harmony with QMP manufacturing methods.
- Producing a drawing or sample for approval prior to production.
- The expertise of an AutoCAD and/or Radan/JETCAM in-house designer.
- A-Z Project Management of the whole process, from idea through to design, to delivery and installation.

Additionally, our specialised production team will provide our customers with CAD drawings. Alongside rendered imaging, customers are able to see what their product will look like in situ.
Euroslide project created at QMP will all go through the same journey before arriving to customers. The journey has 4 key stages which are: Concept, Design, Manufacturing and Installation.
Euroslide – The four stage process
Concept
The first stage of the process for Euroslide projects is the concept – This is the idea process, discovering what you want for you workspace. We take your ideas and thoughts, transforming them into workable concepts. It is important we work together closely with our clients to ensure their concept can be worked into a design, which is the next phase of the process.
Design
Design follows the concept process – this is QMP putting ideas to paper. Our specialist designers use softwares such as AutoCAD to design your Euroslide fit-out’s and how these will fit into specific workspaces when completed. Once the design process is completed, the project transitions to the next stage: Manufacturing.
Manufacturing
Manufacturing – It is what we know and do best. This is where your Euroslide project comes to life, built by our specialised factory team. With over 60 years of manufacturing experience, we ensure that it’s designed is built and crafted to the highest quality. Using quality parts and some of the most specialised equipment available, we will manufacture one of the best quality euroslide units available. Once the Euroslide units have been manufactured in our factory they are prepped for delivery.
Installation
The final stage is where we install your design. Possibly the most exciting stage. The bespoke designed project will be hand fitted by a specialist team of installation experts. This final process brings the project to a close, leaving customer satisfied with a robust workspace, designed just how they envisioned it.
